Hi Bronwyn, PINES uses the survey feature primarily to record voter registration information by recording each patron's response to "Would you like to register to vote today?" and reporting those responses to the Georgia Secretary of State's office (as required by state law). Libraries out there do make use of it though, to keep track of things like participation in certain library promotions, etc.
